The Fall Event is all about sharing, learning and growing, and this year’s event is packed full of incredible networking and learning opportunities for progressive garden retailers, consultants and vendors to network, exchange ideas, collaborate, and create new synergies to fuel success. No matter how long you’ve been in retail or what position you hold in your company, there’s still something to learn. There are countless reasons why you should attend The Fall Event, but we’ve managed to narrow it down to five:

1. Connect with your peers. We know you’ve heard it all before, but networking is a huge part of your success. Meeting face-to-face with your peers provides an opportunity to collaborate, hear new ideas, and tap into a wealth of knowledge. You can find a mentor – or become one, and develop relationships that can last a lifetime. The Fall Event provides plenty of white space to engage and connect.

2. Collaborate with our Service Providers. Our Service Providers are industry experts and solution providers who truly know what is happening in the world of garden center retailing – and they have answers to your questions. The Fall Event provides an opportunity for you to discuss your biggest challenges, explore new ideas, and learn what’s working for others.

3. Learn from our Speakers and Facilitators. Our speakers are leaders in the industry – thought leaders that embody The Group spirit of ingenuity and entrepreneurial drive that will introduce you to new concepts and open your mind to new ways of thinking about how you do business every day.

4. Engage with our Sponsors. Our sponsors are premier industry suppliers of the products and services you need to run a successful garden center. Invest some time in engaging with them during breaks. See their newest products and spend some one-on-one time discovering what’s new and developing profitable business partnerships.

5. Relax and have fun. The Fall Event is a lot of learning packed into a short amount of time, but we always make time for some relaxation and fun! You’ll go home re-energized and ready to apply all that you’ve learned to make your center more successful!
